We are also grateful for a generous grant from the Great Britain Sasakawa Foundation, and for financial support from the Japan Association of Translators and J-Net (the Japanese-language network of the Institute of Translation and Interpreting).

The event was also supported by the Embassy of Japan in the UK, Visit York, the Institute of Translators and Interpreters, and the Japan Translation Federation.

IJET-27 will be held next year on June 18-19 in Sendai, Japan. We hope to see many of you there!

IJET-26 and the Zenyasai are now sold out!

We're the first non-Japanese IJET to sell out, and the committee have been amazed at the great response. Thank you to everyone who has registered!

IJET-26 will be held Saturday 20 - Sunday 21 June 2015 in the modern York St John University campus nestled in the heart of the historic city of York.

This year's theme is "Translation: Art, Craft, Enterprise". The organising committee is hard at work preparing talks, workshops, panels, and poster presentations to address these three facets of translation.

There will be a zenyasai on the Friday evening to get you in the mood, networking lunches will be held every day, and after a hard day of learning and networking you'll have the chance to enjoy a ceilidh after the Saturday night banquet!
